Named in Honor of a Mayor who had a Love for Reading
The Chino Hills Branch Library is named after Mayor James S. Thalman who helped Chino Hills become a City in 1991, was elected to the first City Council, and served continuously until he died on August 27, 2003. He led an active civic life for over 35 years. Mayor Thalman was a voracious reader, and he often encouraged his own children to find the answers they sought by taking a trip to the library.
